Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 279
Lucinda sat there, looking as confident as ever, like she’d already snagged the top spot on the exams.
“Your results aren’t out yet?” Cameron and Kylie both looked at her, surprised.
Lucinda shook her head. “Not yet.”
Kylie’s eyes lit up with excitement. “That means you must have done really well this time, Lucinda. When your brothers took their exams, their results were announced late too. They all ended up being the top scorers in the Capital!”
Hearing that, Lucinda puffed up with pride, though she tried to play it cool. “Mom, I could never compare to my brothers. Honestly, I just hope I don’t embarrass you.” She shot them a playful wink and stuck out her tongue for good measure.
Cameron laughed. “You don’t have to compare yourself to them. It’s great if you do well, but it’s not the end of the world if you don’t. Don’t stress yourself out.”
Lucinda nodded, looking like the perfect, obedient daughter. “Got it.”
Then she glanced over at Lydia, who had been quietly eating her food and not joining the conversation.
“Lydia, did your results come out yet?” Lucinda asked, her tone innocent on the surface.
In Lucinda’s mind, Lydia was obviously avoiding the topic because she hadn’t done well. It made sense to her. How could some rural school even come close to what the Capital’s top schools offered? Lucinda had already checked into Lydia’s grades and knew she was always near the bottom of her class. She would be lucky to even get into a community college.
Cameron let out a loud, happy laugh. “That’s our girl! She’s got the same genius genes as her brothers.”
He was just excited, but those words stung Lucinda. What did he mean by “our girl”? Was she, Lucinda, not good enough? Grandpa was not home, so her parents were showing their favoritism more and more. Lucinda suddenly missed the days when Mr. Norwood was around. He always had her back and never made her feel small by praising Lydia in front of her.
Lucinda forced a sweet smile. “Yeah, Lydia’s really amazing. It’s just too bad I don’t know anything about medicine, or I’d love to learn from her.”
Garrett looked at her, a little amused. “You might not know medicine, but you could always ask Lydia about her study habits. She’s got to have some pretty impressive methods.”
Lucinda kept up her act. “That’s true, Garrett. If Lydia’s study methods are that good, her exam results must be seriously impressive too.”

Olha a história bem boa só algumas coisas são chatas ( nesse tipo de história sempre troca as filhas pela a da empregada ou então pegam uma menina pra criar) pelo menos eles tratam a filha bem só enche o saco que até agora a Lucinda tá lá enchendo ! Fora isso tá bom Connor é um fofo a família dela a ama muito só Lucinda pra abaixar o nível do livro já era pra ter resolvido isso e fazer ela pagar mais tudo bem li um livro chinês que era parecido só algumas coisas diferentes ,ais mesma coisa tipo ela salvou o Connor no início lá ela salvava o avô dele , no chinês ela não tinha um irmão mais novo com os pais adotivos , a mãe dela tinha 2 irmãos e todos os avós estavam vivos mais história quase igual e tem coisas tipo o triângulo que lá TB tinha até a Lucinda que no chines TB ficou o livro todo aprontando só no final a família descobria e se livrava dela aí ela ia morar com o cara que ela usa pra disfarçar que não gosta do Connor aí depois ainda quase matava a irmã dele e a mãe dele que ele via como ela era...

Every chapter is missing a sentence from the end of every chapter. It’s frustrating to try guess what’s missing or said...
